INTRODUCTION

You have just acquired a motorization kit. This automation system will serve you well for many years if
you follow closely the instructions in this manual. For a successful installation, you must read this manual
in full before starting to fit it; our warranty only applies to installations carried out in accordance with
our criteria.
This motorization kit has been designed to enable you easily to automate any type of sliding gate,
exclusively for domestic use, without the need for intensive and tedious works. This gate motorization
kit is a self-locking motorization system. Your sliding gate must be equipped with central and lateral
limit stops (not supplied). The limit stops must stop the gate without blocking it. In other words, any
mechanical lock (or strike plate) and any swivelling shoe or stop pin must be removed.
You are advised that a gate automation system is a solution that makes life easier, and on no account
can it resolve or overcome gate installation problems. To that effect see the chapter below entitled
«Preliminary checks to carry out on your gate».
The motor is of the self-locking type. That is to say, when the gate is closed, the gate is held closed by
the motor itself, which remains immobile. Take into consideration the fact that this is not a sufficient
guarantee against «serious» breaking and entering or knocks to the gate.
